Abstract

Sonography is gaining increasing importance in the diagnosis of anomalies in utero. Findings such as anencephaly, hydrocephaly, sacrococcygeal teratoma, fetal ascites, and obstructive uropathy have been described.

While this article deals with the dramatic findings of a grossly anomalous fetus of a twin pregnancy, the ultimate value of ultrasound is its potential for detecting correctable malformations in a safe, noninvasive, and harmless manner.
